$\text{LDL}-$ Low density lipoprotein

It transfers endogenous $\text{TAGS}$ and cholesterol from the liver to the tissues.

$\text{HDL}-$ High density lipoprotein. It transport endogenous cholesterol from the issues to the liver it is good cholesterol.

Density order:

Chylomicrons <$\text{VLDL <IDL<LDL<HDL}$
